The Subtle Transformation of Earth

This interview was conducted with Venerable Changgao, who currently resides in the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. The discussion focuses on the subtle spiritual shifts occurring on Earth, as observed from the perspective of the Western Pure Land. This session was recorded by the chief writer, Shi Fajing, on June 6, 2023.

Venerable Changgao speaks:

"Namo Amituofo. I am Venerable Changgao. The movement of the heavens and the earth has never ceased for a single moment. Every day, the Earth continues its rotation, and life follows the inevitable cycle of birth and death. This is a natural phenomenon, a constant that has never changed throughout the ages.

However, when any external force enters the Earth, it begins to alter its original state. In a short period, the Earth will undergo tremendous changes. Every life form existing on Earth, as well as every spiritual realm, will be affected. During this transitional period, a state of chaos naturally emerges because these beings are not yet accustomed to such profound shifts. Yet, as time passes, the Earth gradually returns to a state of calm. This newfound peace signifies that all affected beings—whether they are biological creatures, animals, or entities within the spiritual realms—have finally accepted these changes, and many have even developed entirely new modes of existence to survive."

The Ripple Effect of Demonic Interference

"The phenomenon I just described applies to all changes occurring on Earth. Let us first consider the interference of demonic forces. When these forces enter the Earth, they wreak havoc, searching for targets to invade. This causes the Earth to become something entirely different. Whether it is the human heart, the environmental magnetic field, or the balance between Goodness and evil within the spiritual realms, everything begins to shift.

Such changes inevitably disturb the Earth's tranquility because the original state of equilibrium is disrupted. It is much like the unchecked growth of evil forces, which pushes a world already mixed with Goodness and evil further toward the side of darkness. This exacerbates the situation where evil outweighs Goodness, which is a massive, detrimental influence on the Earth."

The Inconceivable Power of Practitioner Su

"Now, let us consider this: when the power of Practitioner Su enters the Earth, does the Earth also undergo change? The answer is an absolute yes.

Practitioner Su brings forth the power of Goodness, utilising his Dharma Body to perform Chao Du across the various spiritual spaces of the Earth. The holy Buddha-name of 'Namo Amituofo' is carried along with Practitioner Su's Dharma Body into every corner of the Earth's spiritual realms. The density of the entire spiritual space of the Earth becomes so profound that there is not even a single gap left. When these spaces, now saturated with such high density, are flooded with the Buddha-name, it infuses them with the power of Goodness. Consequently, even if the evil spirits within those realms are initially unwilling to accept deliverance, their inherent malice begins to weaken under the influence of this Buddha-power and the power of Goodness."

The Struggle and the Shift to Goodness

"During this process of transformation, the most resistant entities are the demon crowds within the Demon Realm. They are deeply dissatisfied with the Chao Du performed by Practitioner Su and begin to retaliate and resist. When these actions occur, they also impact the Earth, which is why the Earth experiences these brief, difficult stages of adaptation. However, as these demon crowds gradually realise that their power is no match for the power of the Buddha, they begin to seek another path of survival. Some surrender and submit to the Buddha, while others choose to leave the Earth's spiritual space entirely.

The Earth eventually returns to a state of calm, but the original evil has already been transformed into Goodness during this process. Many affected areas begin to learn how to adapt and change, slowly discovering new modes of operation that can align with these shifts."

A World Moving Toward the Light

"Ultimately, all spiritual spaces slowly accept the influence of the Goodness and Buddha-power brought by Practitioner Su, and the Earth gradually regains its stability. The spaces of evil that have received Chao Du are then filled with 'Goodness,' slowly turning the Earth from a place of evil into a place of Goodness. It is a subtle yet magnificent transformation.

The Earth continues to rotate, but the spiritual spaces of the entire planet have become fundamentally different, including the environment in which humans live, which is also slowly being influenced. The greater the power of the Chao Du performed by Practitioner Su, the more obvious and rapid the impact on the Earth becomes. We can see that Practitioner Su is constantly intensifying his efforts to deliver beings on Earth; more and more sentient beings are being saved, and the phenomenon of evil being transformed into Goodness is becoming increasingly apparent. The Earth, which once struggled to adapt to these changes, has now learned to accept and integrate them. The entire world is moving toward a positive development. The power of the Buddha is truly inconceivable.

Namo Amituofo."
